A Champaign man recently won a victory in his suit against the Diocese of Belleville in which he claims that he was sexually molested by a priest during the 1970s. The man, now in his late 40s, faced a challenge when the Diocese moved to dismiss the lawsuit. The motion went all the way to the Illinois Supreme Court, which denied the Diocese’s motion for dismissal of the suit. The Champaign man’s suit claims that from 1973 to 1978 he was sexually abused by one of the priests at the church. Now that the case is begging in earnest, the jury must first decide whether the church intentionally hid information about the priest’s sexual abuse.
